title: Fast imaging of the second moment using magic echo trains.
abstract: Approaches are discussed to imaging of the second moment of proton NMR dipolar spectra. Two methods are proposed using the peak shapes of the magic echo trains for evaluation of the second moment. One is a quasi-multidimensional FT approach where the peak shapes of the magic echoes are spatially resolved, and the other is the fast version of the former approach, collecting the same data in a much shorter measurement time. Preliminary results of spatially 2D, as well as 1D, experiments are reported.
